School
age in Georgia will be 6 instead of 5 again. The recommendation has been issued
by the Ministry of Education and Science at a work meeting. The meeting
participants inform that 2014-2015 academic year will be the transition period
and children who will be 6 before 31 December 2014 will be eligible for school.
For
every next academic year, children who will be 6 before the start of the year
will be eligible to begin school, reports GHN based according to InterpressNews.
The
meeting participants hope that initialing the legislative changes will bring
positive result, as the 5-year-old child’s psychosocial and emotional condition
is not ready for school and neither the school is ready for this, as there is
no appropriate infrastructure.
